Michigan startup Equus Automotive has unveiled the production version of its Bass770, a slick coupe that features late-1960’s style wrapped around modern mechanicals.
Equus manager Mike Oualid tells that the company was started by a group of auto enthusiasts with a penchant for classic fastback pony cars who sensed a market for a high performance, 21st Century take on the genre among like-minded collectors around the world.

New American muscle car company launches retro modern coupe.While the aluminum and carbon fiber-bodied two-door strongly resembles Frank Bullitt’s 1968 Mustang GT, it’s powered by the supercharged 6.2-liter V8 from the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, tuned here to pump out 640 hp and 602 lb-ft of torque that’s channeled to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle with a twin-plate clutch.

Equus claims the Boss 770 can accelerate to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds and hit a top speed of over 200 mph.
According to Oualid, the Bass770 is built on an aluminum racing chassis that has been modified for street use with a four-seat interior and a suspension that uses General Motors’ acclaimed Magnetic Selective Ride Control damping system. Fade-free carbon ceramic brakes also come as standard equipment.
